    Action and drama are the basic features any movie requires to reach success but David Fincher gives these two genres a whole new meaning in his movie ‘Fight Club’. The film, featuring big time stars like Brad Pitt, Edward Norton, Helena Bonham Carter, Meat Loaf, and Jared Leto, was released in 1999 and is based on a novel written by Chuck Palahniuk of the same name.

    Never has the fine art of cinematography been so perfectly executed than by Orson Welles in his perennial film, Citizen Kane. Whether a fan of the story or not, every true admirer of movies can appreciate the cinematic techniques utilized by Welles to capture the life of his enigmatic main character. Many aspects of the movie have been analyzed thoroughly, but what I would like to examine is an idea that is often overlooked. As the movie fades in, an eerie chain link fence and a sign reading NO TRESPASSING greet us. Although seemingly unimportant when watching, these two words hold just as much value to the content of the film as does Charles Kane himself. For, if we realize, the characters are attempting to trespass into Kane's life. In fact, the mansion can be seen as a metaphor for Kane, while the fence is the demeanor he puts up to block others from his true thoughts. The importance of this idea is reiterated in the final scene; our last shot is of the sign and a view from outside Kane's manor. The story has come full circle.…

    Citizen Kane is often regarded as the greatest American film of all time. It expertly executes many different aspects of film making as an art form. Orson Wells used a new style of shot framing called Mise en Scene to show the dynamics in a scene. He also used lighting in ways that had never been used before. As the star of the movie as well, Orson Wells delivers an all time great performance as Kane. All these things add up to create one of the greatest movies to ever grace the silver screen.…

    Moore focuses on tying together people and events that occur in the American society. He ties the characters together in a way that magnifies America’s weak points and how it is influenced by many different realistic events that people create and the different people in society. Moore seems to create his characters with very “complex psychological profiles (New York Times Book Review),” that helps to create the view point of heroes, anti-heroes and villains.…
